How do I start multiple shells for the  IVSHMEM demo?

"uio_read and uio_send need to be started in different shells."

I have Hyperterminal on COM3 where I start U-boot and run jh_mmcboot

"Open two shells, using SSH to log into the board. Execute uio_read in one shell and execute uio_send in the other shell.
#uio_send /dev/uio0 [count] 0 0
#uio_read /dev/uio0 [count]"

I've figured out how to connect a SSH shell using the Ethernet port on the i.MX8 eval board.

In the COM port shell

$ ifconfig eth0 up 

$ ifconfig

Look for the IP address after inet addr

e.g.

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:9f:07:15:9a
inet addr:169.254.42.78 Bcast:169.254.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0

 

Then I start another terminal e.g. I'm using Tera Term to the IP address above 169.254.42.78

The username is root

Where are the "uio*" executables? They are not in the LF_v5.15.32-2.0.0_images_IMX8MQEVK download, but I got the Linux jailhouse demo working (after some work).

 

Is someone going to update the IMXVIRTUG document?

You can use ssh connection to open second shell

Does this mean I use an Ethernet port to ssh into the i.MX8 board rather than the serial port?

Or this can be done using the existing COM4 port?
